Hourglass

I watched the whole world drowning in chemicals
Associative but it takes its toll
Can I surpass time or would I start to rust
Depreciating, collecting dust
And I feel myself as I fall out of way
And like whole time leave its sense of fate
When the nightmares come and the dawn sets in
Feel the fever break
I will not burn from within

It's too late to feel I've lost my breath
With the hands of time around my neck
Am I more than a pillar of the past
Or am I just a sand enslaved by the hourglass

Will I live again or will I fade to black
Dehumanizing with the heart attacks
Will I inspire before my dreams unfold
But if the future's so bright the blood should glow

As the walls melt and the light fades
I'm letting quicksand take me
As the walls melt and the light fades
I'm letting quicksand take me

It's too late to feel I've lost my breath
With the hands of time around my neck
Am I more than a pillar of the past
Or am I just a sand enslaved by the hourglass

If you look beyond the blindfold
You'll find that hole in my soul
One peer, one mind
No hope, no time
If you look beyond the blindfold
You'll find a hole
I'm on the edge of my seat
Holding out for a sign
Trying to rewrite the story line (in my soul)

It's too late to feel I've lost my breath
With the hands of time around my neck
Am I more than a pillar of the past
Or am I just a sand encased in the hourglass
It's too late to feel I've lost my breath
Hands of time around my neck
Am I just a pillar of the past
Just a sand encased in the hourglass

Fear is not my fate
Fear is not my fate
